The challenge from my embroidery group was to join fsl pieces to make a chain. I used the fsl daisy design from Embroider Shoppe. I also wanted to use variegated thread so these are very non-traditional looking daisies! I have no idea what I will do with them. Oh well, I did learn a lot.

Very pretty colors for fall. I remember many decades ago I used a trim I had bought that was similar to this as a trip on a dress. I think it would be pretty on a headband. I hope others have ideas too. This chain must have taken you a lot of hours!

Love your daisies. I see them in various colors decorating a hand made card. What about attached to a hair barrette, or attached to the yoke of a dress, special hand towels, anywhere a touch of beauty is needed.

I like your daisy chain!
I made one very similar for my daughter for her wedding. I used it as a headband to attach her veiling, but hers was all white.
You could jazz up all sorts of stuff with the daisies; even put them around the lower legs of your jeans, use them as a hat band, put them on pillows or on a quilt, if you do that kind of sewing.

Hi I'd make a belt out of this. I love the suggestions others have said so far too. Good luck with whatever you do with it. Love Chris

That's beautiful and would be a good decoration on a dress, on a girl's hair or wherever you want. Well done.
Hugs, Lidia

Looks great, maybe also as a chain for a larger flower, or as a border on a towel, you're sure to think of something better, love greetings

Well this computer is not letting me see your pictures except a thumbnail size. Not sure what length you made them, and BTW, they look gorgeous but can you make a piece of jewelry out of it or possibly hand stitch around a neckline to a top? Too pretty to not use for something.

Oh my! What unique way to use an embroidery design! Did you have something in mind when you created this? You might pinwheel a few in a circle to make a bigger flower to top a gift box. Or, add a row of them to glue on a flower pot! How long is this?
